(...) hiya! (...) I'm not sure if you mean you want to create the LEGO sets in MLCAD, or you're using pieces from those sets for your own creations.

I have just done my first Pov-Ray rendering using LP3. It has turned out nicely except for the fact that it is very small. Can I increase the size of the model in MLCAD/Ledit? Can I increase the size of the model in POV-RAY? Thanks Carl Watson (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)

It is not part of a sphere. It can be thought of as a virtual cube which has had one corner sliced away in a curved fashion.
